We've had two wonderful dogs with sad endings. We did the same exact thing after we had to put down our first dog, said no more but then got another one at the pound who was priceless. When we lost her I had started helping feral/stray cats and at one time had 7 so no more dogs. Unfortunately I only have 3 inside and 3 outside at the moment. Only one went peacefully in her sleep. All the others were very traumatic but I wouldn't stop having pets for anything. They give us so much.catsladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375770995988927860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-61596441596811812332011-12-24T12:19:00.283-05:002011-12-24T12:19:00.283-05:00Colleen, I'm sorry about Ginger.

It reminded me of our dearly departed Rotty and the special experiences loved ones bring into our lives. Much love to you, Dave, and the kids! Many blessings with Josie!

My daughter is studying to be a vet tech and told me about Black Dog Syndrome. Nobody adopts black dogs, old dogs, or big dogs.<br /><br />So I adopted the biggest, oldest, blackest dog at the pound, and lo, Sarge is a saint on four paws. He and BooBoo are my writing buddies, and what a blessing that is. <br /><br />You did a wonderful thing, Colleen.

Mark and I lost our lab-rat terrier Licorice to old age four years ago, yet we still occasionally wish aloud that Licky was with us to lick the pan - or as we called it, "help with dishes." (The cats try, but their tongues are smaller and they're much more finicky.) Bless you for providing a loving home and some overdue TLC to Josie. <br /><br />Spoil that dog rotten.Tamara Hoganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07248676173138017003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-85749449732050567522011-12-23T08:11:54.170-05:002011-12-23T08:11:54.170-05:00Colleen, what a heart story.

Ginger was so lucky to have had your family as hers and is probably whispering in Josie's ear not to be afraid.<br />Merry Christmas to your family.Carolyn Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704111268464382004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-4875137509710233182011-12-23T06:59:08.505-05:002011-12-23T06:59:08.505-05:00Colleen, I'm so sorry about Ginger, but so gla...Colleen, I'm so sorry about Ginger, but so glad you found Josie. We had a similar experience a week before Christmas last year when our 2 year old boxer/husky mix had a massive, on-going seizure--on Sunday. Took us 40 minutes to get him to the emergency clinic. By then, the damage was done.<br /><br />A month later, we brought home our Doberman rescue, Ryder. He's been tearing around our house ever since. :)<br /><br />Josie is a very lucky doggie.Tracey Devlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06893860773314837424noreply@blogger.com
